Add a school, club or team calendar

Many schools, clubs and teams publish a calendar link. Paste it into Petal Home to see those dates on your Plan.

Before you start

Adding a calendar from a link is part of Premium, and you need to be able to edit the Plan.

1Step 1 of 4

Find the link

On the school's, club's or team's website, look for "Subscribe", "iCal", "ICS" or "Add to calendar", and copy the link.

Good to know

  • Petal Home checks for updates once a day when the person who added the calendar opens the app.
  • If the calendar uses repeating events, Petal Home adds the first date only.
  • To remove it, the person who added it opens Import calendar, taps the round ⋯ beside it, then Remove.
  • Once added, it shows under Brought in once, with a Refresh button, and only the person who added it sees it there. Links that start with webcal:// work too.
  • The daily check needs Premium and an internet connection. If events are removed from the school's calendar, they disappear here after you tap Refresh.
  • Anyone who can edit Plan can choose Household for it, not only admins.

Keep going
